    Author Notes:

    It’s a start, even if it’s not the one you want.

    Bette : The only thing in  the world I wish this minute is that Tina would leave. “Is this because of Sam ? Because, Tina I have to tell you I did not get the feeling that you”

    Tina : She didn’t hear or wasn’t listening. I know Bette well enough to know now is the time to be extraordinarily patient. “No, Bette, this is nothing to do with Sam.”

    Bette : I nod, somewhat stupidly accepting what Tina says without question. “Tina, please, I need to be alone.”

    Tina : I let Bette say what she feels she needs to. “Bette, I cannot just go back to being your wife. It can’t work like that. I won’t work like that.”

    Bette : “Do you love Sam ?” as I start to search for an explanation to what I am hearing.

    Tina : “Bette” I say it rather sternly. “There is no Sam. Sam and I are finished, we are not seeing each other anymore. I do not love Sam. I love you but it cannot go back to the way it was.” I soften my tone a little as I sit on the couch and reach for Bette’s hands, she pulls away.

    Bette : .loves me, not seeing Sam anymore, cannot be how it was. “Tina, I don’t think I understand. If you love me and you are not seeing Sam. I did everything you asked, I left LA when.”

    Tina : I interrupt. “Bette, I think the best thing, at this time is for us both to be good parents and try to be good friends. Bette, I do love you but we are a long way from being together again.”

    Bette : “What does that mean Tina ?”

    Tina : “It means Bette. I want to work this out, I want us to try but I think the place we need to start is being friends. I do love you Bette. I missed you every minute you were away, that we were apart”

    Bette : “But, you never once.”

    Tina : “I know. I made mistakes too Bette. I loved the words you said to me in the bedroom just now, so passionate and determined, so you Bette and it would be too easy to fall right back into how things were. Bette as much as I love you I am not prepared to go back to where we were, where I was before. I simply cannot. I need more than passion and determination Bette. I need a promise, a commitment from you that you will not run when this gets hard, and Bette, it will get hard. There are many things we need to talk about and work through even as friends. I need more time Bette.”

    1. thanks for all the comments guys. I think everyone is a bit right, there are still some things that need to happen before they can be together. Bette really doesn’t quite understand, her listening skills still need some improvement. On the other hand Tina is being quite inflexible, I also think Bette’s passion is what defines her, no passion, no Bette as we know her. Tina is also not sending entirely clear signals. I thinnk it is fair for Tina to ask Bette to show she has some stayinf power after doing a runner. And ofcourse there is Laurel. Off to write the next chapter……..

    2. I don’t trust Tina’s words. She’ll send Bette mixed signals. She’ll want a physical relationship and will succumb to that sooner than she thinks she should, then she’ll pull away. Or she’ll put the moves on Bette and Bette will recoil, not understanding Tina’s haste as she’ll be afraid of one mistatke ending it all. This could be an agonizing story.

    6. God I’m getting a headache. These two, I swear. So okay, Tina is partially right they should take there time, but she doesn’t have to call all the shots, it is nice that she know Bette well enough to know when she didn’t quite get the whole story. Our Ms. Bette, girl always did have a hard time letting Tina finish. Patience Bette, patience. She’ll get through this as long as Tina stays by her.

    7. will you make us wait forever?We need an update viiite!Your story is so so so…my vocabulary is too short to express what I think.With you, I don’t see the words when I read, I see the pictures you describe so well.The feelings,the movements, the sun, the beers(hehe) and everything, everything is absolutely real and perfect.I catch myself holding my breath feeling what B&T must feel sometimes, it’s unbelievable how you can convey emotions.I really missed that so thank you very much ;-)

    8. i love your story… the emotions are so real… the fact that Tina wants to try & be friends is best… it’s no longer just her anymore… can’t wait for more

    12. This gets better with every chapter that you post. Had me worried there a bit, that Bette was going to pull away again. This is the hard part, that she needs to commit to endure. I think it’s fair that Tina ask that they start off slow, as friends. Build a good foundation, of trust, and love, and it’ll only be better for them, and Laurel. Post again, soon, please.

    13. i agree with Tina that is the right choice..one step at a time..they need to feel confortable and trust each other again…amazing chappy..post soon thanks :o)

    15. k. why does everyone have color. snQQpy email me. please.

      uk – i understand tinas pov. but really, i dont think bette has completely understood what she meant. i think it might be best if tina didnt leave until she understands. this wasnt what i was epecting, but do understand. thanks

    17. See Tina’s being smart. Bette & Tina never tried the friend thing first. She’s asking to be friends; that’s not unfair at all. How smart would it be for them to just jump back into a relationship again?

    18. I agree with snQQpy all the way – it’s Tina’s way or the highway. Is that totally fair to Bette? Hopefully, Tina realizes that quickly that Bette’s passion and determination are what define her. Hopefully, Bette will put the same passion and determination into being ‘friends’ and hurry up and win Tina’s passion back.
      Great story – have been a silent reader until now – I just had to agree with snQQpy.

    22. just got to love our hot headed girl … that bette . hears just the first point and spins off into her own remake of an incomplete statement. Thank god Tina gets her and elaborated. Hmmmm – i think i’m alot like bette – i hear something when me and my girl are “talking” and i hyperfocus on an initial comment . i’ll have to suggest to my wife that its her job to reel me back in when i misinterprete what i thought i heard – LOL … keep them coming – i so look forward to each and every chapter.
